Overview of Health Monitor

Health Monitor provides critical information about the AEM forms system, such as server information, memory usage, and processor usage. Also available are Work Manager statistics, such as the number of work items or jobs in the queue and their statuses. You can perform the following tasks using Health Monitor:

Verify that your system is running properly

View information to help diagnose system problems as they occur

Perform operations on work items or jobs displaying problems

Purge obsolete records from the Job Manager database

The Health Monitor page in administration console has three tabs:

The System tab displays resource monitoring charts and information about the forms server (or node in a clustered environment). (See
View system information
.)

The Work Manager tab displays data that is related to Work Manager, such as the number of work items in the Work Manager queue. You can filter the information by using various criteria or manage individual work items by using the operation tools. (See
View statistics related to Work Manager
.)

The Health Monitor web page is populated with statistics gathered through a Gemfire API. This API automatically discovers all nodes in a cluster. It also resolves security issues that occur when gathering statistics from behind proxy servers or load balancers. Java options are available to fine-tune the Health Monitor, decreasing the impact to the performance of your AEM forms environment. (See
Fine-tuning Health Monitor performance
.)
